Welcome to my shabby little corner!!I adore the vintage/shabby style..and often have it in my cards & projects... Creating is balsam for my soul...It's the perfect escape for me, after a loooong day with my little rascals... Hope you enjoy your stay!

I guess im in a romantic period with my cards..*lol* Here i have used the adorable Sarah Kay,flowers,roses,leaves,pearls...lots of pearls... The papers are torn again & chalked. The old paper i have "squized" in my hand and then chalked it, gets more effect that way. The little lady is colored with distresses.This card is in Flourishes Timeless Tuesdays Challenge (where it's all about pearls... a girl has to havae pearls...*lol*) So, how are you guys? Friday again... Felt like it was monday just yesterday... how did that happen? *lol* I hope you all have a great weekend! Hugs!

I made this schedule for Donja. I have torn the edges & chalked them...(once again...*lol*) Colored a Magnolia Tilda, the circles i cut out freehanded...and tore the edges as well, a few rubons here & there, roses & bling. This schedule is in 2 challenges, Simon Says it's back to school & ABC it's C for circles... That's all for today. Have a great day/evning! Hugs

Last night when i was making my "painting", i put this card together... The motiv i have colored before, so all i had to do, was just put it all toghether. A lot of stuff in this card...*lol* Guess what!? I have won Elisabeth Bell's blogcandy!!! 6 stamps & and a gorgeous t-shirt!! I was jumping up and down...and woke our youngest baby...and my shoulder got a beating..feels like it...*lol* I'll be staying under my mailbox the next weeks..*hopeing for great weather!* I have used lots of glimmermist(my new favorite have to have product!) on this card, on the papper & a white rose became..."goldish"... That's all for today, have a great day!!

Yepp...That's this cute duckies name! And you can get him FREE! from There's Magic In The Air! Just click on the topic, and your there! This "painting" is very colorful..and it has a meaning... I have a friend that works as a doctor, and he meets a lot of kids in his work,(unfortunatly his room, like most doc's rooms are...is dull & sterile...) there's one special little boy who is very sick and has to go to my friend often. This boy loves ducks and color... So, my friend asked if i could make somekind of "happy" painting for his room, with ducks... Sure i said.. but then i thought i have no duck images... Came across TMITA challenge...and there he was!! *lol* I have colored all of the ducks a bit different, added some 3d glaze on the water, some glitter here & there and thoese plastic eyes (that move when shaken) I had made up my mind not to craft for a fue days...due to my shoulder, but i heared that the little boy was coming to the doc's in a few days... so i thought it would be nice if the picture was there, when he comes... Have a great day!!

Good morning! How was your weekend? Here it's been a little tuff. Now, after my pregnancy, my rheumatoid arthritis is comming back. I have gotten a inflammation in my shoulder... Looks like i have to get some shots, but i'm hoping it will pass without, since i breastfeed... But i have managed to make something small...a bookmark for Donja (she wanted a new one) This was really easy to make, since i colored the image before,just put all togheter..*lol* Have to go and get my kids ready for school.. Have a great monday! Hugs!

I must have hit my head...*lol* Second post for the day!This card is for a friend hwo gave birth to a baby boy a few days ago... I'm planing on folding some baby shoes too... ( i hope i have matching paper... my stack is getting smaller...)This card is also for the Pile it up! challenge, where the challenge is to make a masculine card,or a card for a boy. i also entered lili of the valleys challenge, to use charms! I have used hÄnglar&tÄnglar's gorgeous stamp, lots of glimmermist, blue mist,charms (pics of that one...it's sooo cute!)brads,flowers,roses etc... A hole lot... Had to make a card with lots on, after my "naked" card below! *lol* Have to go, baby needs feeding... once again...=)

Friday already! Today i'm of to the pediatrics with our youngest (just a rutine checkup) Boy does he grow..*lol* I can't belive that he's 13 weeks already! You can image the chaos att home during daytime... Amir is like Dennis the menice... (does all sorts f stuff...but has a heart of gold. If his baby brother is sad, he gives his own pacifier to him! (For you hwo don't know, he's just 1 year old and a big brother!)I made this simple card for Simon Says challenge, witch this weeks is all about christmas in August. I used layer on layer with paper, tore the edges and chalked them. Simple as that. Playing around a little with somw simple ideas for this years christmas cards... Tomorrow i have a card for you that i have used lots of stuff on...but more about that tomorrow! have a great friday!

This weeks challenge at Abc challenge the letter B = Buttons! personall i have always found it hard to use buttons, and be pleased with the result...but this card, i'm actually happy with..*lol* Yet another card in vintage style... some old paper,charms,qk (keyhole) roses,leaves,glimmermist,chalk etc are on this card. Yesterday my youngest daughters school started. She came home so happy... she had missed all her friends. I a way it's good to get back to the "rutines" again...During summerbreak, we kind of let go...but that's part of summer... I hope you all have a great thursday! Hugs!

Last night i made a vintage style card. My hubby had his "boat watch" shift last night, so i crafted all night...*lol* A little tired today... Today i'm off with the kids to buy new clothes, for school start... Short posting today, since it takes a while to get them all ready! Have a great day!

This card is for 2 challenges,Cute Card Thursday where they want you to make a "beach themed" card. And for Challenge up your life it's all about "holiday feelings". On this card i havae used this adorable stamp from Panduro, but i think it's a difficult stamp to use...at least i think so... I colored her so that it looks like she burned herself in the sun... My brother is getting this card, he's going to Mallorca, and i know he will get burned in the sun...*lol* Otherwise, this card is very simple... Now i'm off to craft some more, i have a few more cards that i have made tonight, but i'll show them later! Hugs

This weeks challenge at Simon Says is to make something that isn't a card. First i thought i'd alter something. But i ended up with this painting/picture for my SIL. She is getting engaged so i thought it would be a cute memory for them. I have used tons of stuff here...cracklepaint,glimmermist,chalk,tore the edges,brads,roses,charms,old paper,stamps (stämpelboden & motivet's stamps)etc. On the wooden heart i have carved the intiatials... Later on i'm going to add the date there also. Now i just have to buy a good looking frame! Now i'm off to bed! Sleep well!

It's a new round at Abc challenge & this week it's A is for ANYTHING GOES with an added option of Animals. So, on my card i have used a squirell (Doraline) from Motivet. I left this card without a sentiment, that i can add on later. Once again i have used layer on layer with paper, torn edges,roses,leaves & ribbon.Have you noticed that lately my cards have been very pink? *lol* Time to change color soon... I didn't think i was up for crafting yesterday, i thought that i just would clean up my craftingroom after my daughter was in there and let her creativity flow...*lol* As usual, when i'm there cleaning, it ends with a card or something... =) I just want to thank you all for your kind comments you have left!! * you are sooo nice* Hugs!

Today i got a lovely KAOS in my mail, from YLOI, Kaos mother herself! Jeeez... it's beautiful!! (I borrowed the picture from her page) Go check out her page, it's filled with gorgeous creations in a wonderful style! Yesterday i was at the amusement park with my kids & my brother and his daughter. i came home with dirty,wet,tired but oh so happy & pleased kids! *LOL* Today, it feels like i've been hit by a bus... and i only went for a few kiddy rides with Amir...but running after him was the hard part....*sigh* So, not sure if i'm upp for crafting tonight!!

When you shop, do you buy stuff that you think you need? It's been a looong time since i ordered anything... but the last time i fell for some tiny flowers from prima... (I'm a flower freak...) These tiny sweeties have been on my desk ever since... There cute, i've tried them on every card..but no...they just didn't look right...Untill i made this card! I made a bunch of flowers with them... So on this card i have used scraps,chalk,glitter, tore the edges,ribbon & tiny flowers that didn't fit anywhere... That's all for tonight... lets see if i have time over to craft tonight...Hugs!

This weeks challenge at Simon Says is buttons & bows. This card is made of scraps... I thought that every time i make something, i'll make card from scraps. These small cards are fast and fun to make! On this card i have used cracklepaint on the paper under the teddy bear,buttons,ribbon,bow,charms,flowers,leaves,chalk & ofcourse torn edges..*lol* I'm off to bed! Nighty night!

I have for some reason a lot of scraps... *lol* (What crafter doesn't?) So thought i have to start making cards from my ever growing stash...Here are 2 small cards made with scraps...almost alike. Perfect to make these small cards if don't have much time! Today we are going to take trip with our boat, we have found a great little spot with a perfect beach for the kids! Have a great day! Hugs

Here are the KAOS awards i made for Linda,Lena & Lotta. I'm not going to tell witch one goes where, you have to check out there blogs later...I mixed all kind of stuff on these..*lol* You can find, roses,charms,chalk etc... I'm off to the postoffice with these today...The ones i made before where mailed yesterday...I'm sorry, if you have had to wait for them, but sometimes time just isn't there...*lol* Have to run... my kiddos are starting to wake up & need breakfeast.. =) Have a gorgeous day!

Well, you probably haven't missed it, but flowers are one of my favorite decos... =) I have used some different hydragena flowers & mini roses on this card.

At Cute Card Thursday this weeks challenge is to make a "fruity" card. On this card i have used a "fruity" stamp. *lol* Very easy & fast to make. Layer on layer with paper,chalked edges, a little torn edges also *like always on my cards*. Added some glittlerglue to the leaves for some extra liveliness to the card. This weekend has gone by fast...Yesterday we went out for a trip in our boat. Kiddos went swimming and we had a barbeque... Returned home with a migrain... Probably from the sun... Today it's much better, just got a "feeling" of it. I hope you all have a great day! Hugs!

At Simon says challenge it's all about distressing! You don't have to ask me twice...*lol* On this card i have used Sarah Kays stamp that i have colored with distressers. Tore the edges and chalked them. Layer on layer with paper, some decos in form of flowers, a rose,ribbon & leaves. Now i'm off to make more cards, since everyone are sleeping...*lol*
